Erin’s Receives Final Assays From Serbian Boron Exploration Program

February 13, 2013

Exploration Program Deemed A Success As Erin Prepares For A Mining License

Erin Ventures Inc. [TSX-V: EV] has received assay results for the final five exploration drill holes from its Piskanja boron project in Serbia (hole #127A, and holes #133 to 136), with the results meeting expectations. These assays mark the conclusion of the exploration phase at Piskanja.

Management is very pleased with the outcome of the exploration program. As a result, preparation of a Geological Elaborate (which forms the basis of a mining license application) is nearing completion, in advance of the mine development phase.

Assay Highlights

Holes EVP2012-127A and 133 to 136 are in-fill holes designed to help establish a compliant resource estimate, sufficient to qualify for a Serbian mining license. Hole 127A returned a total of 2.5 metres of high-grade borates from two zones, including 1 metre of 44.7% B2O3. Hole #133 was outside the known footprint of the Piskanja deposit and, predictably, did not return significant mineralization, with assays returning a high of 5.0% B2O3. Hole #134 intersected a total of 5.1 metres of borates, including a 3 metres zone of 31.2% B2O3. Hole #135 returned a total of 7.9 metres of high grade borates in two zones. The lower zone totaled 7.6 metres averaging 31.1% B2O3, including 2.0 metres of 49.6% B2O3. Hole 136 intersected 5 separate zones including 1.3 metres of 38.8% B2O3. A complete table of results is attached.

Erin's exploration program

Erin has completed a diamond drill program of HQ and larger diameter vertical core drilling, consisting of in-fill drilling across the known mineralized area at Piskanja, on a 100 metre by 100 metre grid (with a tighter pattern drilled over a portion of the area). Engineering, hydrogeology, environmental and other studies have been conducted in tandem with the drill program, in the anticipation of a mining license application, and the transition into feasibility and mine development phases.

Erin is ensuring that the project is being developed to provide disclosure in compliance with internationally accepted NI 43-101 standards, as well as conforming to the requisite Serbian mining standards. By doing so, Erin's mine development planning and implementation will conform to the highest standards expected by the Serbian authorities, the international community, and potential strategic partners.

Chemical analyses are conducted as follows:

Results are stated as a percentage concentration

All measurements are metric

Chemical analysis was conducted by SGS Canada Inc. in Lakefield, Ontario with sample preparation being conducted by SGS's facility in Serbia
